This is no good at all

Jazz organ giant Jimmy Smith is dead. Eric Olsen at Blogcritics (linked) has the obit. This one hurts me a lot, actually. I have spent hours and hours listening to Jimmy's records and playing along on the bass. His footwork was funky, tight, and groovy, and my ability to dig a deep groove owes in large part to him. Man... and I was still hoping to see him live.
